Hi I had my 1st weigh in and have only lost 4lb I'm gutted I really thought I'd loose more in 1st week as I've really stuck to it and had no tango effect boooo hooo I know it's a loss but I'm still gutted

Thats twice the average recommended weight loss of 2lbs per week , so thats a great start!!!
The trick with the sugar is a mental think try and have something weighing 1lb in your cupboard just to remind you how much you have actually lost.

i know that you think 4lbs isnt much, but seriously, get something that weighs 4lbs and you will be amazed!!!!
i lost 4lbs in my first week of the tabs too (i think) and i know what it feels like to think.. wow all this for 4lbs... but i then had my hubby give me a plate with all these random things on it, and said here hold this.....
i was shocked!!!

and then the other day he gave me a massive bag with about 20 slimfast bottles in it and said carry that round.... i then asked how much it weighs, and it weighed 1 stone... it was massivly heavy!! and he said you have lost almost 3 of them!!!!!
i was gobsmacked!

good luck for the next week... and lets hope you can keep it up.. but dont worry if it does drop down.. this is normal!

i dont look like that now, but i will again!!!Ultimate Goal
140lbs (10 stone!!)
Current weight: 179.8lbs
Weight to go: 39.8lbs
